Hi!

Using Outlook 2002 (XP):

I like to send email at certain time of the day, week automatically without
me doing it manually.

Is there away?

I did go to the email options screen and entered the date and time in the
"Do Not Deliver Before" box, and clicked on send. This put the email on
hold in the outbox. However, time did come and go, and that email did not
get sent.

Thanks in advance.

Anthony

Thanks for pointing this out, but was looking for this feature to be in
Outlook. This does tell me though that Outlook doesn't have this feature
which does answer that part of what I needed to know.

Thanks,

Anthony
 
It should work IF you're connected AND Outlook is configured to dial-up to
check for messages AND Outlook is open AND Outlook is configured to check
for and send messages every x number of minutes.

If you're expecting Outlook to automatically open, dial the ISP, and send
the mail because you set a do not send until date, then no, that's just not
possible.

Hi Lorien:
I'm on DSL and connected to the network all the time, does the dial-up check
for message need setup? If so, where.

A test was done with Outlook open, and configured to check and send messaged
every 5 minutes. I created an email with a do not deliver before time
frame. I clicked on send. It was put in the outbox folder, italic. The do
not delivery before time past, and Outlook did not send the email
automatically when it did it's check message thing. What went wrong?
